New York Liberty star Breanna Stewart was spectacular in her team's 83-75 win over the Indiana Fever on June 6, scoring 30 points while adding 8 rebounds, 2 assists, and 4 steals in 33 minutes played. Stewart spoke to the media after the win and explained how New York took advantage of one aspect of Indiana's second-half strategy. "We definitely exploited it... We wanted to really put that pressure on them, too. They want to get into the paint; they want to attack us that way. We want to also attack their hips and put the right people in actions," Stewart said about the Fever getting more aggressive in the third quarter, per an X post from Myles Ehrlich.Stewie on attacking when Fever got aggressive: "We definitely exploited it... we wanted to really put that pressure on them too.

New York took a staggering 40 free throws in the game, most of which came in the second half, and 18 of Stewart's 30 points came via the free throw line (she had 21 total free throw attempts). Indiana, on the other hand, only took 15 free throws and made 9 of them, converting at a 60% clip.

And because she's the Fever's offensive orchestrator, the team wasn't able to find its rhythm and ultimately led the lead they'd built up in the first half slip away.New York has now won four straight games and are 7-4 on the season overall, and face the struggling Connecticut Sun on June 8. Indiana is 5-5 overall with their next game being against the Washington Mystics on June 8.Add us as a preferred source on GoogleFollow
